Berlin one month after Russia cuts off energy exports.
 
https://twitter.com/worldonalert/status/1497721250159992833 van full of civilians and their dogs shot and killed. looks like several managed to crawl away into a ditch and one german shephard won't leave the owner's side. warning, graphic.
Thanks for the warning & describing the video. Can't watch that. Years on the Internet have somewhat hardened me about human death, but horrible stuff involving animals just breaks my heart.
Especially when it's dogs displaying their fierce loyality and love like that.
 
Just woke up. Anyone have a summary of what happened in the past 8 hours? Looks like to me the Russians got felted again and now they're doing more air raids.
 
Where the fuck are these magical Kievan/Kyivan super-soldiers coming from? First it was the "Ghost of Kiev", next it's the "Iron Man of Kyiv", now we're getting the "Ukrainian Reaper".
From Kolomoyski sphinkter, sir.

If being serious, it's a desperate attempt to boost morale of the troops\demoralize an enemy... It doesn't work at all and just bring up the basis for memes instead.
 
Russia standing army is around one million, not 1.8 million. And yes, they will not send them all in one place. Than never happened in history - event in the worst moments of soviet-german war 1941-1945 not more than 60% of army was on front line or near it.

Also many of that one million is not able to be used in Ukraine - well, if you give a rifle to e.g. rocket engineer you didn't get a rifleman.
Learn 2 Count faggot. Obviously they aren't going to commit all of them. It's a force pool.

That should make them extremely easy to find by Russian detection RADAR.
Note that Ukraine also has Buk missiles. So if this footage is from the war, it could be Russian aircraft. The trucks also look Ukrainian to me, but that's doesn't really mean much.

How is that easy to find if they resemble a bird of prey?

Ukraine has only 20 or so of them but the damage they have dealt is immense.

Tinkoff Bank is now quoting the Rubles to Dollars exchange rate as 171. For reference it was 83 two days ago. Until markets open tomorrow the Russian financial system has no idea what the exchange rate will be, so it's forced to just make a guess. Russia's central bank says it can defend the ruble but that remains to be seen.
A more recent screenshot appears to show Tinkoff's exchange rate at 192 Rubles to 1 Dollar now. Again, it's pure guesswork until markets open. But tomorrow is going to be very bad for anyone living in Russia.

Talks are scheduled along the Ukraine/Belarus border in the exclusion zone. Putin has placed the nuclear arsenal on high alert. Early reports that Kiev is now cut off and surrounded. Either the war ends soon, or it starts getting really fucking ugly.

To put it in terms all the gamers can understand, they aren't doing much grinding xp to level up so they can use their super on Kyiv. They speedran too far and now are underleveled for the area they want to fight in.

"One does not win wars through better weapons and equipment or more men but through positive social media cycles"-Sun Tzu
Morale is the most important factor in a war

Ukraine shills doing their job keeping morale up I guess since the Russian claims of mass Ukrainian surrenderings seem about as credible as the Paradise Bringer of Mariupol sending 832 Chechens to their eternal virgins with a slingshot and marbles
